Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 2253: Chapter 2250: Ice Storm Scripture

Xiao Yi flipped through the pages.

After a while, he put down the ancient book in his hand and smiled lightly, ”Badu Ancient Land?”

Most of what was written in the book was elusive.

This Badu Ancient Land was said to be the resting place of the Overlord, containing his lifelong inheritance and treasures.

In ancient times, this was a secret that drove countless martial artists mad, and even strong ones like the Ice Venerable were no exception.

However, no one, including the Ice Venerable, could find out which corner of the continent it was located in.

Thus, it seemed more like a legend.

”The glory of ancient times astonishes the martial artists of this era. Even a slight inheritance left behind is enough to give martial artists of this era limitless power.”

”So what about even earlier times? The secrets and wonders that could awe the martial artists of ancient times?”

Xiao Yi’s heart was momentarily complex.

His light eyes gradually turned icy, turning indifferent.

The aura around him, without knowing when, became as cold as it was back then, to the extreme.

”Unfortunately, born at the wrong time.”

”Unfortunately, I have no time now, with plenty of things to do.”

Xiao Yi put down the last book of ancient anecdotes and left the bookshelf behind.

By this point, he had browsed through all four surrounding bookshelves.

But, if this was the opportunity of the Ice Palace Fourth Floor, it was too ordinary.

The cultivation techniques, martial techniques, secret techniques, martial arts insights here are indeed precious and are an immensely rare ocean of martial arts knowledge.

But these do not interest Xiao Yi at all.

Guardian Nangong’s previous comment, ’Could it be that he looks down on the precious martial arts classics here?’, was extremely mocking and disdainful.

That was clearly a remark of sarcasm and derision.

But, in fact, it was true.

Xiao Yi indeed looked down on the martial arts classics here.

In terms of cultivation technique, there is none here that could rival his Asura Battle Body, Ten Thousand Poisons Treasure Book, etc.

In terms of martial technique, similarly, there is none that could rival his Dawn Without Limit, Asura Transformation, Ten Thousand Poison Hand, Furious Flame Finger, etc.

In terms of secret technique, they also couldn’t match his Demonic State, Nine Yang Reincarnation, etc.

No, it’s not even a matter of not measuring up, there’s no comparison at all.

The gap is too large.

But the inheritance of the Ice Venerable, what he left behind on this Ice Palace Fourth Floor, is sufficient for four disciples to establish the Ice Emperor Palace and Ice Storm Sword Pavilion to guard it.

Clearly, it is not as simple as it appears on the surface.

Xiao Yi went to the front bookshelf, lingered for a while; then went to the left bookshelf, lingered for a while again.

Finally, he explored the right bookshelf for a few minutes.

After a while, he took three books, stopped at the center of the fourth floor, and sat cross-legged.

The three books, one called ’Ice Storm Scripture’, one ’Twenty-four Ice Shattering Slashes’, and one ’Ice Illusion Body’.

The three books, one is a cultivation technique, one is a martial technique, and one is a secret technique.

These three are the highest-level cultivation technique, martial technique, secret technique he could find on the four bookshelves.

In the distance, Lu Long nodded, ”Not bad, this kid has sharp eyes.”

”The Ice Storm Scripture seems to be of the same level as the Ice Frost Chasing Sun Technique, but the Ice Frost Chasing Sun Technique requires a long time of accumulation to achieve great power.”

”But the Ice Storm Scripture can be fiercely powerful from the early stages, more suitable for a young monster talent like him to cultivate.”

Xia Yifeng nodded, ”The Ice Frost Chasing Sun Technique once enabled one of its creators to dominate the continent in ancient times, not losing the Ice Venerate Ancestor’s reputation and greatly enhancing our Ice Emperor Palace’s prestige.”

”Its level and power are naturally extremely strong.”

”The Ice Storm Scripture focuses more on the early stages; if cultivated to great achieved, it is enough for any martial artist in the realm of Ice attribute to have power far surpassing other heavenly talents and monsters before the Saint Sovereign Realm Seventh Layer.”

”But when it comes to our level, the Ice Frost Chasing Sun Technique can make the martial artist’s power endlessly profound, astonishingly prolonged, surpassing the Ice Storm Scripture.”

”You don’t understand a thing,” Lu Long dismissed Xia Yifeng with a snort, ”The Ice Storm Scripture, is a method practicing both internally and externally, even at our level, if used by a sword cultivator with Sword Dao power, it is enough to let a martial artist explosively unleash several times the power of the Ice Frost Chasing Sun Technique in a short time.”

Xia Yifeng rolled his eyes, ”I was referring to comparing the two alone, but you judge solely from the perspective of Sword Dao, measuring through your own path of the Ice Storm Sword Dao, lacking fairness.”

”Xiao Yi does not only practice Sword Dao...”

Guardian Nangong interrupted, ”In any case, this kid had a plan long ago.”

”Before he seemed indifferent, but now he directly chose the peak venerable technique, Ice Storm Scripture, for deep study.”

Guardian Bing said in a deep voice, ”Twenty-four Shattering Cuts is also one of the strongest martial techniques here, each slash more ferocious than the last.”

”Once greatly achieved, the first slash alone can pierce ten thousand meters of solid ice, the second slash’s power triples, and from then on, each slash is overwhelming.”

”Back then, even the ancestors of the Nangong Family couldn’t achieve 24 swords, but just the 23rd sword was capable of instantly killing a peak of the Saint Sovereign Realm.”

”The Ice Illusion Body is also the supreme Ice attribute secret technique, capable of transforming into snow and wind, used for fleeing, or silently killing an enemy, significantly enhancing a martial artist’s power.”

”If this kid wasn’t prepared, I reckon he couldn’t have chosen these three classics in such short time.”

”Exactly.” Guardian Nangong snorted coldly, ”Three classics, all are the strongest here, ironically, all three are perfectly compatible.”

”How could there be such a coincidence in the world? Don’t tell me a mere first layer of Saint Sovereign Realm has such high vision and martial arts judgment.”

”I fear, it must have been that surname Luo’s instructions long ago.”

”You, Xia Yifeng, tried every trick to get this kid into the fourth floor of the Ice Palace, and as soon as he entered, he seemed indifferent, waiting for the opportunity now.”

”Hmph, really clever.”

On the other side, at the center.

Xiao Yi had already sat cross-legged, carefully studying the three classics.

At first, he thought there was no martial arts classic here that interested him.

But he suddenly realized, the cultivation techniques, martial techniques, secret techniques here, such a massive number, and all are extraordinary; enough for him to choose the most suitable cultivation technique, martial technique for his current level.

In the past, he was on his own, learning whatever powerful means he encountered.

In short, as long as it’s strong, practice it first, so long as it enhances his power.

Thus, he never had the systematic cultivation methods of those disciples from ancient powerful forces.

Other heavenly talents and monsters had their elder’s arrangements every step of their martial arts dao, cultivation techniques, martial techniques, secret techniques, all matched with themselves.

Other martial artists had techniques that matched all three, and could unleash perfect explosive power in no time.

But Xiao Yi was different, his methods were extremely singular, whatever could kill his enemies he used; more often, he relied on his extraordinary combat experience to judge.

Now, he had a chance to choose three mutually compatible methods.

The Ice Storm Scripture, Twenty-four Shattering Ice Sword, and this Ice Illusion Body, once mastered, his combat power in the Ice Sword Dao would definitely soar in an instant, no, it would skyrocket.
